The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $301,982 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to Sea Haven, Inc., a non-profit organization based in Little River, South Carolina. The CoC Program provides funding to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
Under this Project Grant award, Sea Haven, Inc. will use the funds to provide a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention. The award aims to decrease the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness by focusing on performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. While the specific sub-recipient activities are unknown at the time of the award, the CoC Program supports comprehensive community-based strategies to address homelessness.
